Once you serve your sentence, I believe all rights should be restored....If what you did is so bad that you don't deserve to have any of your rights recognized then you probably should have been hung for your crime.

Now there’s a hot take!
Let’s see what the trump hive mind has to say.

I'd agree if I thought parole was completion of the sentence.

Cuomo is supposed to pardon them before the end of their parole to get them able to vote

I mean, the recidivism rate is only 75%.

And they haven't even completed their parole! They are still serving the rest of their sentence.

Cuomo, nuff said!

You do realize that convicted felons do NOT lose their right to vote in MA, right?

I don't know if they vote while in prison, but they are entitled to vote when they are on the outside.

He's still a nutbag! Last week, he made a strange speech saying that he was undocumented and dared someone to come and arrest him for deportation.

Andrew Cuomo claims he's 'undocumented,' challenges officials to deport him

Might as well give them their Gun Rights back too...
